Built using existing Salesforce components, the Contact Center in Health Cloud helps contact center agents to quickly verify the member’s identity, capture interaction details, review member health plan information, and address member concerns.

Contact center agents can also decide the next best actions based on the member’s request.

The Contact Center includes these components. You can customize them based on the requirements of your organization.

- Action Launcher: Provides quick actions that are contextualized for the contact center.
- Identity Verification: Helps contact center agents validate the member’s identification details such as account name, account number, phone number or postal code.
- Knowledge Articles: Helps contact center agents search for relevant knowledge topics.
- Patient Card: Provides a complete view of the patient’s health data, including medication requests, health conditions, allergies, and immunization details. Agents can create the related records from the patient card.
- Profile Card and Member Plan FlexCard: Provides information about member plans and basic details about the patient.
- Record Alerts: Informs agents about changes in records that require attention.
- Timeline: Provides contact center agents with a complete view of all engagement interactions, topics discussed, and cases created or updated. Agents can also create cases, engagement interactions, and topics.
